What I we do at work

So this is what we do at work.



We catch toh-man fish.

Haha. The story goes like this;

We have a in pond at our Recreation Club. It has been kinda a hit with the males in the leisure biz office. F&B will put guppies in, my boss put his arowana in, Alvin and the tech guys put parrot fish in and such.

The guppies population grew a lill outta control so outta goodwill, Jerome and Alvin placed some toh-mads, a.k.a snakeheads into the pond. Hoping to control the population of the guppies.

Next thing everyone knows? The toh-mad ate up ALL the guppies.

Fear for his arowana, my boss made Alvin and Jerome catch the toh-mad.

Its quite a funny scene la, throughout the couple of weeks, my boss kept asking Alvin, "you catch the fucking toh-mad yet?"

The boys tried traps la, nets la, it doesn't work! Finally they had to resort to using live guppies as bait. Thank god they caught 4 and still got 2 more to go.


Then when he saw Alvin and Jerome attempting this way to catch it, he said, "you better hope my arowana won't get hooked or you fucking get it."
HEEHEE.

So if you happens to go to Siloso Beach toilet and notice at the pond there got 2 disgusting looking black fishes, its the fucking toh-mad!

And they have a story behind it.

this shows how irresponsible humans are!

but before i start, snakehead in malay is spell as toman.

how can parrot fish-a marine fish survive in a freshwater pond? and its is already call a pond not lake! so how can those mother fuckers be so stupid to even suggest putting toman inside the pond? do they know that toman can grow very fast and huge? and how can that small pond accommodate a full grown toman??? this is really terrible. and imagine arrowana a supposed good breed who needs to feed to live fishes/frogs living in THAT condition? if he really cares for his arrowana, it shouldnt be in that pond!

so please, get the toman out of sentosa before it grows any bigger. also FYI, toman do attack humans ok!

pumpkin,

hahah ok first and foremost, i think e parrot fish is the fresh water type. not the marine type. i think i cld identify the marine fish type..

hah they really got no idea it was eating up ALL the guppies!

they removed 4 and left 2. e tomans are still small so no issues of now.

go check out e siloso toilet!

still small. hopefully remain tht way.

animals wont remain small unless a chihuahua talks to me now. hamsters grow fat too!

and toman grows very fast becos they eat alot. given a few months later, who will still remember the 2 tomans at siloso beach toilet?

i know there are ppl who may think it's funny to have tomans in that pond but seriously it's not becos they breed fast too!

so please i will still suggest remove the tomans ASAP.

this is not the worst i've read/heard. have u heard abt the silver dollar story? this guy bought some silver dollar fish and after a few months he got a very nasty bite from his silver dollar fish. it turn out that what he bought from the aquarium months ago aint no silver dollar. those were piranhas!!! guess where he dispose his piranhas?

okokok pumpkin, i will let my friends know about it.

btw how come if tohmans are so scary why pple still sell them?

Agnes said...

tomans (snakehead) also know as sheng yu has v good healing effects. ppl who are v sick, just had an operation will drink sheng yu tang to recover faster.

it's the same theory as why ppl sell or buy piranhas!
